Just to share with those suffering nervous breakdowns from trying to digitize HDV footage from a Sony HVR-M15, M25 or M35 or similar deck into Media Composer. Don't even waste your time trying. Mojo, Aja, Matrox, they can't help you here. Video overruns, file size limits, dropped frames, etc...

What firewire express card(s) are you using with your Dell Precision M90? Need to get one for use with external firewire drives. Thanks,
